Purchase rugs

A small-town store or a small store in a big town will probably not be experienced in handling this type of order, so go to a well established decorator or a large metropolitan dealer.

Carpet for hotels, restaurants, stores, clubs, theatres—or for any place where there is enough yardage to make economical weaving possible—is sometimes designed and woven to order.

There are also special "contract" designs and fabrics which can be made if the order is sufficiently large. That's why you often see carpets in public places that are not available in open stock.
